Adams ph1 172 ?

[adam172]

Nope iv had no problems I can't wait for the summer for the new wheels to go on !!!

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Stunning.

I think you need a (not very) professional photoshoot....

Call me :rasp:

 

[adam172]

Need some more bits doing first then u can deffently take some non-professional professional photos iv always wanted some decent pics of it

 

[adam172]

just been out and gave the car a quick blast and i seem to have solved the cut off issue which is good, il get some pics up to show where it is now located.

next week i may attempt to fit my new front discs pads and braided lines also these little bits.

i also have carbon door cards ready to go on but i need the handle holes cut out, whats the best way to do this and are they any guides for where the hole should be, or will it be a case of just lining it up and hoping for the best??

also ordering new tyres for my summer wheels this week hopfully

 

[Silent_Scone]

looking good, needs a bit more camber though. Have you had them geo'd?

 

[Rob]

I want a go in this Ad, pwease?

Have you still got the spacers sitting around?

 

[Revels]

What size is that plate dude?

 

[adam172]

mate i forgot all about them they have been sitting in my car for ages (they were there sat)

iv not had it set up yet as its no were near how i want it. i still need spacers on the back and to fit camber shims on the back. when this is done then i will get it set up, but tbh it feels alright as it is atm it doesnt drift to one side ect...

 

[adam172]

What size is that plate dude?

errrrrr let me check but i just used he guide on here iirc!

 

[Rob]

The spacers have been in your car?? Do I need new bolts for them or anything??

Gimmie a price mate.

Like the sticker bombing btw, makes a change to see it on something track focused.

Oh, and please tell me it's seeing a track?

 

[adam172]

yes its deffo seeing brands this year (missus got me £100 voucher for xmas towards it)

er i dunna gimme £15 for them they come with bolts but there the delta mics which have bad press but mehhh ? up to you?

and yea as for sticker bombing i couldnt decide on a colour combo and i wanted it to be a bit different from the normal scene jobbys or the normal track slags so its going to be a mix of both. interior= track inspired. exterior = static drop, scene, hella flush, street core based ect....lol (still a very long way to go yet though!

 

[Revels]

If you used the guide then it's the one I wrote. Lol.

 

[adam172]

then you know how big it is :rasp:

 

[Revels]

Lol. Well I hadn't seen anyone else put one on a Ph1. So wasn't sure what size you used..

 

[Dr HMS Derv Destroyer]

look cracking mate. should be right fun to drive on a track.

 

[todd100]

[adam172]

hahaha cheers i cant wait to get it all on to see it all come together i just dont get anytime to spend on the car atm though

and revels im pretty much 99% sure i used those measurements, but if you want i can double check my plate for you?

 

[adam172]

What size is that plate dude?

[adam172]

thanks and thers a place for it just under the fuel rail guard

 

[Mcaff]

really like this its awesome good work

 

[adam172]

thanks

 

[adam172]

Not sure if anyone can help but since swapping over my door handles they don't always open properly? I'm not sure if it's to do with the central locking or the way I have put the handles back on does this look set correctly as I know thers a fair bit of adjustment

 

[Rob]

It normally just needs adjusting on that thing mate, clip it out and in again in a different place.

Really should have looked where it was clipped before an clipped it into the same place, but its obviously too late for that now. (lol)

LOVE the windows switches btw, proper tidy job.

 

[adam172]

Lol yea should have really marked it out it wa scratched were it been anyway but still now workin ??? mIght just play around with it

 

[Rob]

Just trial and error it.

It's just a case of how high it pulls the catch to open the door.

To a degree you can get a rough idea by disconnecting the rod and then pulling it until it clicks to open the door, then you check the amount of travel in the handle, i.e where it is at the top of this travel, then you can jus connect it accordingly.

Oh and are you free Saturday mate?

 

[adam172]

cheers iv sorted the drivers side i just need to do p/s

im workin until 2ish on sat but free after ?

 

[Rob]

Ah no worries mate, was going to see if you fancied the big karting meet. We have a space on our team.

 

[adam172]

ahh no sorry mate, plus thers so much work i need to do the car atm, any spare time i get im spending on that:boring:

 

[adam172]

right i am sorting out the carbon door cards as i type but where can i get the spacers from for the door handle OR what other thing have people done? thanks

 

[Rob]

I've read bad things about getting these plastic surrounds you're looking for.

Only from France, cup racers iirc?

 

[adam172]

i know there expensive but im not sure hoooow expensive, if i can look at one i might be able to make something similar. or see what others have done to get around having a gap?
